  1. Not when leaving point A is of higher priority than setting point B. What's your point? Besides... It's always greener at point C.
  2. Actually, I haven't been trolling.
  3. Done, as I am sure you have noticed. Yup, and responded to. Now we can let this topic die again?
  4. This made me lol so much... Piracy of games/movies has actually been on the steady rise due to the US's failing economy, and digital distribution is no harder to pirate than a normal hard copy... Now on to the topic at hand. Most of what I torrent I either owned in the past, or can't find anywhere else... (eg. Cyberstorm 2, Earthsiege) The rest I test to see if they're worth buying. These are the ones I will otherwise never purchase, and therefor is no loss to the company. Torrenting a copy of AC2 is the only reason I bought it, the original AC, and pre-ordered ACB. The same goes for movies. I torrent movies as though I was checking them out from the library, and plan on buying most of the ones I didn't already own. (Tron Legacy is not one I'll buy) Music is usually hard to find outside of torrents, (at least for what I listen to) and there are even some artists that have albums released only through a free torrent. (eg. Steal This Album by System Of A Down) Many are realizing that piracy is inevitable, but not necessarily a bad thing. I'm open to any criticism, questions, and will clarify on any point if you like.
  5. How is it stealing their money if I absolutely won't buy the game if I don't get a chance to play and see? If it's good in the torrent, I buy. If not, they haven't lost a damn thing. Do it. I have lots of good arguments supporting.
  6. There already is a triple nested limit... (quote within a quote within a quote) Character limit is probably unnecessary though.
  7. It depends on the music and the speakers/headphones you use as to whether it is even possible for the frequencies to be produced. (as I already mentioned) So what song did you use, and what speakers/headphones do you use? To me it is extremely visible. It will vary with different monitors and different eyes, but it physically strains my eyes when I know what the image is supposed to look like, and it doesn't look that way when I see it.
  8. Creationism simply states that life on earth was not a result of a random chemical process that eventually mutated into humans, but a result of intelligent design. (someone or something designed us in a specific way) This idea is arrived at through basic statistical logic. (a class you can probly take in college if you ever get there) in that it is so extremely unlikely for that particular chemical reaction to occur that the likeliehood of some external intelligence becomes more likely.. (they just don't bother to theorize how specifically it was done, since there is no way to find that through logic currently) It is just as valid a theory as evolution, because it is based on science as much or more so than evolution. Simply different logical paths taken, neither less valid than the other, neither proven enough that they should be taught in schools as facts. (this is about what is taught in schools, not what you personally believe... I hope the mods will start helping me get this back on the topic it's supposed to be)
  9. I believe I mentioned something similar earlier as being my preference too... We could co-rule and keep each other in check. Yup. I'll get to work on those self-programing nanites shall I?
  10. Get back on topic now please.
  11. Nope, I get them too... Frequently...
  12. Soundtrack for Moon is on constantly... Day and night... Best music to fall asleep to.
  13. Yes, but there are several versions of name brand PSUs that suck when compared to their generic counterparts... I used to have a couple of them. (started burning any time you went over 25% of the output rating, and the generics were going to 135% without issues)
  14. Very true... (they also have many more recent games too) But I did more gaming on the Channel F than I did the Atari, so we should also include Fairchild in that developers list too...
  15. I've been trying to find a torrent of them...
  16. Unless you're bass deaf, there is a major difference in the extreme frequency ranges. (you also have to have decent speakers/headphones to produce said frequencies at audible levels)
  17. Easy... Last night I dreamed I was asleep. Done.
  18. It wouldn't need to be a lot, just like 30KB would be perfect since that would then allow for any maximum quality 100x100 jpegs to be used.
  19. Some people quote those right above them if they think their post is going to end up on the next page... (I do that) It shouldn't be punished IMO, but everything else seems ok. Might I recommend that if it's just a really small post, say a 1-4 line post that is quoted, even if it's immediately above the response, that it not be punished either. Example of a 4 line quote: This is not a 4 line quote:
  20. It is not fair if moderators get a higher limit, I would suggest the admin normalizes it. But you do not need a higher limit, increase the jpg compression, with such a big file and small dimensions you either have a very complex picture or you are using excessive quality number (92 or higher). I have CS5, and even a small amount of quality loss is very apparent in the 100x100 rez pics I would use.
  21. Torrents are your friend. I can PM you a basic guide to safe torrenting if you want... I know how to torrent, i torrent old games i can't find anywhere to buy and movies. But i like supporting the developers and giving them what they deserve. Then torrent until you can buy, then buy and remove the torrent... Simple, and gets you gaming sooner...
  22. Most players get bored of MP if they can't get advantages after working for them. (I'm one of them)
